The Honda NX 500 Dominator is an all-terrain
motorcycle. The Enduro was built from 1988 to 2000, was next to the NX 650 is
also the variants of NX 125, 250 and 500
All variants possessed a four-stroke engine with a cylinder and four valves, an
electric starter and, initially, a kick starter. The 500 cc version differs only
in the lower cylinder capacity of 650 cc version. The 250 cc version is an
original model, however, since the motor is water cooled as opposed to the two
large air-cooled engines. Also, trim, frame and design of the 250 differ from
the 500 / 650 cc versions significantly. The Honda NX125, some with the surname
Trans City, is seen rarely in Germany as it is to get only as an import from
France, Italy or Brazil.

During the production of the Honda motorcycle was modified again and again
slightly. From the year 1991 due to stricter emission regulations, a secondary
air system (SLS) have been used, which reduced the capacity of initially 45 to
44 hp. In 1996, the final assembly of the motorcycle from Hamamatsu, Japan
Atessa, Italy laid. As a result of the purchase price has been reduced, but also
to loss of quality be gone hand in hand.

NX 650 was the successor to the Honda SLR 650, with the same 650 cc
single-cylinder engine. However, the SLR 650 and its successor, the Honda Vigor,
more designed as a fun bike for road use rather than as pure Enduro.
